Better Goods frozen pasta. Tonight was Herb Cheese Ravioli with Spinach and Ricotta lightly topped with a semi-homemade simple stewed tomato sauce with canned stewed tomatoes, salt, pepper and garlic. Served with a side of crusty bread drizzled with olive oil and balsamic glaze. #WhatsForDinner

A plate of herb cheese ravioli with spinach and ricotta, lightly topped with a chunky stewed tomato sauce and sprinkled with diced Parmesan cheese. On the side is a piece of crusty bread drizzled with olive oil and balsamic glaze, also topped with a bit of the tomato mixture. The dish is homemade with a cozy, rustic presentation.

Not only did I can for the first time ever, but I made kiwi jam and kosher style dill green tomato pickles. I also made canning labels with my Cricut and inkjet printer with print then cut.

Am so excited!!

Several glass jars of home-canned goods are displayed on a towel-covered surface. The larger jars are filled with green tomato pickles and labeled “Kosher Style Dill Green Tomato Pickles,” while the smaller jars are labeled “Kiwi Jam.” Each jar has a decorative round label with a green and red design. The jars are sealed with silver metal lids and arranged neatly in rows.

It's a sky. That's all. If you haven't stopped for a moment to look up and gaze, please do. It's glorius.

Full moon glowing brightly in a dark night sky, partly obscured by textured clouds illuminated with a soft golden hue.

This is the third bookmark I've made with the Cricut Maker 3 and cardstock. I'm really loving making bookmarks. I still have a lot to learn, but it's a wonderful (yet expensive) hobby. It's worth it if you're looking for good habits.

#Cricut #Bookmark #Cardstock #ArtsAndCrafts #LetsGetCrafty

A bookshelf with several books, including "Mom’s Devotional Bible," "The Great Gatsby," and "Linda Goodman’s Sun Signs." In front of the books is a blue bookmark decorated with puzzle piece patterns and a shiny blue tassel. Beside it sits a small ceramic figurine of a blonde child holding a heart that says “I Love You,” standing on a base that reads, “Sometimes I Hate You but Always I Love You.” A mosaic vase and a camera lens are also partially visible.

A hand holds up a laminated bookmark with a shiny blue tassel against a textured wall. The bookmark is decorated with interlocking blue and white puzzle pieces, one featuring a small heart shape in the center. The person is wearing a smartwatch with a colorful woven band in shades of blue, pink, and purple.

Five shiny tassels in different shades of blue are laid out on a surface, attached to the corner of a laminated puzzle-piece bookmark. The tassels range in color from pale silver-blue at the top to deep navy, bright teal, electric blue, and aqua at the bottom.

Several large sheets of cardstock are spread out in overlapping layers. The colors range from bright blue and light blue on the left to lavender, mauve, deep navy, pale pink, and soft violet on the right. The sheets are arranged in a fan-like display across a flat surface.

Made my first two bookmarks with cardstock on the Cricut tonight. Tassels coming soon. It was very relaxing. They're a bit imperfect, but I shall learn as I go.

A gray and white Pitbull dog is lying on a dark gray tufted couch, resting its head on the cushion with its tongue slightly sticking out. The dog wears a pastel-colored collar with a tag. A large decorative pillow with an intricate pattern is behind the dog. Sunlight filters in through white blinds in the background, casting soft natural light on the scene.

I'll be playing 'Where The Water Tastes Like Wine' tonight on Twitch. First playthrough. Initial release 2018.

I opened it and it immediately dove into the game. The narrator's VOICE. Dang. We shall see where this goes! I've exited and we shall experience this together.

I hope you can stop by!

Where the Water Tastes Like Wine is a Narrative-Adventure game about traveling, sharing stories, and surviving manifest destiny.

Players wander across a folkloric Depression era United States at their own pace, meeting strangers with their own stories to tell. Through these interactions, players will be able to collect unique stories which can then be re-told to unlock new interactions.

First Cricut project in honor of a friend. Ignore the dust and will fix some imperfections up tomorrow, but so glad how this turned out especially since it's my first project and I did layers.
